Radio Shack ET-895, ET-894 User Manual

READ THIS FIRST

We have designed your telephone to conform to federal
regulations and you can connect it to most telephone
lines. However, each device you connect to the phone
line draws power from it. This power draw is the device’s

Ringer Equivalence Number

, or REN. The REN is on the

bottom of your phone.
If you are using more than one phone or other device on

the line, add up all the RE Ns . If the total is more than five
(or three in rural areas) your phones might not ring. If
ringer operation is impaired, remove one of the devices
from the line.

If your phone causes problems on the phone line, the
telephone company can disconnect your service. The
phone company tries to notify you i n a dvance. If ad vance
notice is not practical, the telephone company notifies
you as soon as possible and advises you of your right to
file a complaint with the FCC.

The phone company can also make changes to its lines,
equipment, operations, or procedures that could affect
the phone’s operation. The phone company notifies you
in advance, so you can take the nec essa ry steps t o pre­vent interruption of your phone service.

FCC STATEMENT

must, upon req uest, provide the FCC re gistration num­ber and the REN to your telephone company. Both num­bers are on the bottom of your phone.
